[Bug 846719] Re: Conflict between acer-wmi and brcmsmac kernel modules
Hi, I have a patch and hope it could solve most of the acer-wmi rfkill mistake issue. Could you help me testing the patch? I've built the a dkms package and put it at http://people.canonical.com/~ikepanhc/lp/826784-6/ To install the dkms deb, just use the command `sudo dpkg -i test-dkms_1_all.deb` and please blacklist acer-wmi Please remember to reboot after installation. To uninstall the dkms deb, please use the command `sudo dpkg -r test- dkms` Please attach the output of `rfkill list` and `dmesg` Ref: http://www.mail-archive.com/platform-driver-x86@vger.kernel.org/msg02859.html http://www.mail-archive.com/platform-driver-x86@vger.kernel.org/msg02860.html Thanks a lot. ** Tags added: acer-wmi-rfkill ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Ike Panhc (ikepanhc) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/846719 Title: Conflict between acer-wmi and brcmsmac kernel modules To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/846719/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have had the same problem on my PackardBell dot a netbook. Unloading acer_wmi also solves the problem.

Re-confirmed after reinstalling the Oneiric's final version. -- Manfred Wilhelm (mwsun): Currently I'm using the blacklisting approach.

[Bug 846719] Re: Conflict between acer-wmi and brcmsmac kernel modules
Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . If possible, please test the latest kernel (Not a kernel in the daily directory). Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag(Only that one tag, please leave the others). This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. If this bug is fixed by the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream-KERNEL-VERSION'. For example, if kernel version 3.1-rc9 fixed and issue, the tag would be: 'kernel-fixed- upstream-v3.1-rc9'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. Thanks in advance. ** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/846719 Title: Conflict between acer-wmi and brcmsmac kernel modules To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/846719/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report on this issue. However, given the number of bugs that the Kernel Team receives during any development cycle it is impossible for us to review them all. Therefore, we occasionally resort to using automated bots to request further testing. This is such a request. We have noted that there is a newer version of the development kernel than the one you last tested when this issue was found. Please test again with the newer kernel and indicate in the bug if this issue still exists or not. If the bug still exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to Confirmed. If the bug no longer exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to Fix Released. Thank you for your help, we really do appreciate it. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete ** Tags added: kernel-request-3.0.0-12.20 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/846719 Title: Conflict between acer-wmi and brcmsmac kernel modules To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/846719/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
